I have a feeling that my syncro (sp?) for my first gear is shot, because it isn't slowing the gear down when I put it in gear, it will actually grind unless i shift into second and then back into first. So at stop lights I have to put the clutch in, put it into second gear and then back into first before I can go, gets a little annoying after a while...

It also will grind, or what seems to be a grind going from first into second after the car has been sitting turned off for a while. But after that intial "grind" it makes going into second from first, it won't happen again until I turn my car off and drive it again a few hours later.

Thanks for any help in advanced!
